As if on cue, a phone call from Jay came ringing.
"Zayne, bring Rose back in here. Also, take your woman away!" Jay started blasting away at the phone.
"Sure, sure, sure, Sir Ares."
Zayne wiped the sweat off his brows and escorted Rose back.
When she saw him, Josephine glowered at Zayne." Tell me, is it true that you fancy her and not me?"
Zayne said remorsefully, "Sorry, I took the wrong person."
Hearing this, she punched him lightly. "I'll pound you t o death, believe me. How could you even mess up like that?"
The two were back together again.
Jay's hand reached over to Rose, yet she hid her hands behind her back, leaving his hands to hang mid -air.
After a while, he gave in. "Since you want to give her some form of compensation, I'll do as you say."
Rose promptly beamed with joy and intimately took his hand. "Sir Ares, the feast is about to begin. Let's g o."
Jay was starting to have a bad headache.
Let the feast commence!
The seats were all filled by now.
At the front was a grand stage and on it were birthday party decorations. There was a tiered cake there. It was enormous.
A famous local singer performed on stage.
There were singing and dancing. Very quickly, it was bustling inside the room.
Jay took Rose by his side and walked to the table labeled 'C'.
"Sit down."
Rose could not believe it. "Sir Ares, I'm all eat and no work, yet I'm sitting at what other people see as a dream. This 'C table... Will I become a prime target, then?"
Jay held up a placard with her name on it, making her dumbfounded.
